PRAFO 650 Features Overview

The PRAFO® Orthosis, is a totally adjustable, custom-fitted Ankle Foot Orthosis that can help manage many of the ankle/foot anomalies your patients present to you. With recumbent patients it is used to prevent pressure sores at the heel or malleoli areas due to pressure from a mattress.

There are several variations of this product line which consist of different sizes (adult, pediatric and infant), liner options (Kodel®, Fleece, Terry Cloth, Polyurethane Foam or Pad & Strap) and a variety of color options.

Our most popular varient is the PRAFO 650SKG.

Keep in mind, we’re practitioners and designers, and we’ll help guide you in choosing the most appropriate AFO system based on patient etiologies, cost and applications. If in doubt please contact us for assistance in providing your patients the correct model.
